We visited the Texas Memorial Museum today.
The bug specimens were beautiful.
Lovely!
Today, was the celebration of Charles Darwin. Booths were spread about and evolutionists were showing fossils. One man in particular was proudly showing off ACTUAL dried plants that Darwin himself had collected on The Galapagos island. When he repeated that Darwin himself had touched that exact plant (and I didn't show any reaction) He turned disappointedly to the next guy and said, "I don't know about you, but THAT gives me chills"... The other guy nodded in agreement.The next plant he showed me (pictured above) is an actual specimen that Captain Cook had collected in the 1700's.

ReplyDeleteAbout all I did was wash a load of clothes and baked a duck for dinner.
What a fun place but all those bugs are giving me the creeps!
